Abstract: An apparatus for treating a combustion product stream includes a burner assembly configured to support one or more flames, the burner assembly having at least a portion configured to be driven to or held at one or more first voltages. A collection surface is held at a voltage different than the one or more first voltages to attract particulates charged by the burner assembly.

Abstract: A solid fuel burner may include a system for electrodynamic homogenization. One or more electrodes may apply an electric field to burning solid fuel or a region proximate the burning solid fuel. The electric field causes mixing and homogenization of volatilized fractions of the solid fuel, combustion gases, and air. The improved mixing and homogenization may reduce emission of carbon monoxide (CO), reduce emission of oxides of nitrogen (NOx), reduce oxygen in flue gas, increase temperature of flue gas, and/or allow for a larger grate surface.

Abstract: A trapped vortex combustor includes a refractory combustor body defining a combustion volume aligned to receive an air and fuel mixture from an air and fuel source. The trapped vortex combustor includes a trapped vortex channel arranged circumferential to a portion of the combustion volume and/or arranged at or adjacent to a center of the combustion volume. The trapped vortex channel is configured to hold a trapped vortex combustion reaction to provide ignition to the air and fuel mixture. The trapped vortex combustor includes a center body supported near or within the combustion volume.

Abstract: Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to integrated combustion assemblies including a perforated flame holder, combustion systems that include one or more integrated combustion assemblies, and related methods. For example, an integrated combustion assembly may be placed into service (e.g., integrated into a combustion system) as a complete and/or replaceable unit, such that elements and/or components of the combustion assembly are preassembled and no further assembly is required at the installation site.

Abstract: In a fuel and oxidant combustion system, a flame holder support structure includes a heating element that receives electrical energy from an electrical power source. The heating element is raised to an auto-ignition temperature of a fuel and oxidant mixture directed, along an axis proximate the flame holder support structure, to a flame holder for combustion thereof.
